Thousands of tweets are urging for the boycott of 2GB and of any companies that advertise on Jones’s show. Tweets are being directed at Virgin Mobile Australia, Oxfam, Amcal, Home Hardware and Freedom Furniture calling on the companies to withdraw their support.

What a surprise, Alan Jones has once again proved what a truly misogynistic, disgusting and hateful man he is #boycott2GB

Word of Jones’s comments was first tweeted three days ago by the Beanie Kid@greenat16 but the story has now spread everywhere.

The 2GB shock jock has just taken out the Ernie award for declaring: “Women are destroying the joint, Christine Nixon in Melbourne, Clover Moore here, honestly there is no chaff bag big enough for these people.”

Update

The story has today been the leading news item in all mainstream media and led to an Alan Jones ‘apology’ on ABC News24 mid-morning which did not go down well. The twitter sphere again erupted in disgust.

The Sydney University Young Liberals have also come under attack for initially denying the comment before hearing it had been taped and for removing a tweet sent the day after the dinner describing Jones’s speech as “brilliant”. There was also outrage at reports that a Jones had provided a signed chaff bag for auction on the night.
